Forbes is reporting
that according to both technology advances and market share gains, AMD
is expected to shoot past Intel in company performance and growth from
now into 2007. AMD over the last couple of quarters has performed
superbly, with good pricing and even better product offerings. Market
share has risen significantly and even AMD's stock has jumped from
about 36 points to 41 points within a week. Intel's price per share
remains around 21 points.

Analysts are also predicting that Intel will not have the ability to
catch up to AMD until Intel releases products on new 45nm fabrication
processes, which isn't expected until 2008 claims Forbes. We reported earlier that AMD is transitioning its Fab 36
in Dresden to mass produce its next generation processors (both
dual-core and quad-core) on a 65nm process. Intel on the other hand,
has demonstrated that it has successfully started working on 45nm technology but its main production will be 65nm through to 2008.
